Wahoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thankyouthankthakyou! I remeber a while back, you said that I wouldn't be able to carry over bots from DSL 2 to DSL3, is that true for this?

Unfortunately, yes. There's no way around it, since I'm changing or outright removing a lot of DSL2 components. For example, there's just one style of NPC motor in DSL3, and no multiextenders.

It's possible, however, to make a "compatibility pack" that would include all the missing DSL2 components (but hidden), so you can at least import DSL2 bots and then manually "convert" them to DSL3 yourself. This is something I have planned for later.

Just an FYI but you'll have to re-wire all your old bots if you want to use them, the fixed tires means that all the wiring is reversed.

Seems the stock AI didn't get the memo.

My next priority will be getting some actual AI opponents ready. In the meantime, any AI packs are welcome.

Thank you so much click!
this is the best day on this forum for me and this is my 4th year.
We all waited so long for this moment and even though its "just" the beta it`s awesome.
I love the new components and I already got so many new ideas for robots and shapes.
I whish there was a way to show you how thankful we all are

All the bots are going to have to be re-wired. Watching go in random locations is funny though.

I really like it so far, especially UI and menu theme. Now what do we do, make DSL3 remakes of all the bots?

Well, I've just been playing it, and so far, consider me very impressed indeed from what I've seen so far- I love the Rack & Pinion Bursts and Tank Tracks and things. If this is just the Beta, we'll definitely be in for a real treat once everything else is released with it.

click can you leave the multiextender as a cheatbot 2 part they're incredible for attatching stuff for IRL and replica designs and artbots and stuff

...

NOTCH, FIX IT.

Also, what was wrong with the aluminium sheets, for them to be removed?

I had a feeling that you would pay a visit today but I never expected a beta for DSL3... You rock.

I could write a quick little program that would convert DSL2 to DSL3 after the bot exchange is finished.

You have to copy and paste all the new stuff into a pre-existing copy.

woah didn't expect this...

is it possible to add more attachment points to the pc545 and pc625 batteries?

WhamettNuht · « **Reply #39 on:** April 01, 2013, 07:20:03 PM »

Been playing around with it - love how it adds a much more realistic element to it! :D
Was wondering if it would be better to add some AP's to the sides of the armour panel's that way I think more designs and possibilities could be achieved :P
